Target: CD54
Clone: YN1/1.7.4
Specificity: Anti-CD54 In Vivo Antibody - Ultra-Low Endotoxin (YN1/1.7.4) recognizes an epitope on Mouse ICAM-1
Purification method: This monoclonal antibody was purified using Protein G
Antigen Distribution: The CD54 antigen is present on endothelial cells, lymphocytes, epithelial cells, dendritic cells and keratinocytes. It has been demonstrated that ICAM-1 enhances T-cell activation.
Background: Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is one of an important cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) family transmembrane glycoprotein and is critical for the firm arrest and transmigration of leukocytes out of blood vessels and into tissues. ICAM-1 is constitutively present on endothelial cells, but its expression is increased by proinflammatory cytokines. ICAM-1 is a marker of endothelial dysfunction leading to damaging vascular disorders, in umbilical and placental vascular tissue of gestational pregnancies.
